Mesars. Samuel Montagu Co.'s weekly circular dated Lon- don, November 10, states that "in" the absonco of Continental, de- mand, the bulk of the arrivals of bir gold which wore about £750,000 is being sent into the Bank of England, after provision for India (£116,500) and the trade' during the week there has been a net influx of £180,000.” Writ- ing of silver the circular states that "the grasp of the Bombay spoculators on the London sup- plios has not yet relaxed to any marked extont, although prices have shown some fluctulation. ·
"By the simple expodient of tak ing up purchasos as they fall due and lodging the pctual silver in the Bank of England-instead of prolonging delivery for another 2 inonths, as has been done for more than a year past, a largo portion of the speculative holding hitherto represented by paper contracts, has been transmuted into actual silver.
The scrow can be maintained' long as the supply of forwardi ~contracís hold out; meanwhile the bears, who now seemi confined to the Bombay market, ato compelled to pay the artificial prices which rule current horo.
"Naturally basiness is restrict- ad in these exceptional cireum- stances and limited to the sale of spot silvor as it arrives, for dealors are disincliuel to lot out forward silver at so hoayy`q
discount, as is now quoted, whilst higher cash prices are within the bounds of pasibility.
"It is expocind that when the pressure now put on spot silver is. urned off, the lap of forward silver will run freely again.
The premium on cash silver, which was 3/4d. ist week, has gradually lessened, and as tho pot price line kept about the same, the forward quotation has risen to a corresponding oxtout.
Tho-stock-in-Bombug-bus-in-
creased by 800 bars.
"A shipment of £25,000 has beon made from San Francisco të Hongkong."

Messrs. Zorn & Loigh-Hunt's mid-weekly roport on the rubber -share markot, dated Nov: 8;maye:-- There is a very much more cheer- ful touo in the Rubber Sharo Market, and a fair amount of buy- ing is now going on. The liqui- dation of weak positions, which was the principal cause of the severo falls experienced towards the end of lust wõek, has now apparently come to an end, and the antisfactory nature of the an- nual reports" which follow onch other at short intervals naturally Fonds those investofa who have any money to spare to pick up good-class shtres at the low fi- guree now ruling. Unfortunately there are plenty of people at pre- sont who, while possessing, with regard to the rubber planting in- dustry, the faith born of know- ledge, are unable to make pur- chases because their funds aro) already completely locked up. The public at large, lacking any special knowledge of the general position of affairs, and of the improving outlook for the commodity, have naturally been made exceedingly nervous by the long-continued downward course of quotations, and consequently a lot of small selling orders have boon pressed upon the market, which have serv ed to prolong and increase the scent weakness. As mentioned above, however, there islà now a decided olange in the feeling of the market, and with an improv ing tendency in the price of the raw matoria), a much more confi-
